My Vivitar 3105s digital camera keeps shutting itself off after 5 seconds being on and even after putting new lithium batteries in it, why?

My Canon PowerShot A640 shuts down a lot - It seems there is something loose in the camera. Even though I keep putting brand new batteries in the camera, it continues to just shut down again and again and again. Where can I take this camera to have it looked at?

Judging\012 from the hundreds of hits and top position of this issue, Canon cameras\012 have a propensity for falsely reporting low battery condition and then \012shutting down, even if the batteries have just been changed. I've had \012this experien ...

The cover of the battery compartment does not lock closed properly due to the fact that the front recess for the locking tab has snapped off, is it possible to replace the battery cover on this camera, the camera works well, but when you load batteries in and shut the cover it does not keep the pressure on the batteries causing the camera to shut down.

Hi Dear,As described by you. Some part is snapped off. Is this part is a part of camera body or is it from the flap that opens and closes which holds the batteries. If it is the flap, then it is possible to get it replaced. Bu ...

My samsung s750 camera keeps showing a low battery sign even with brand new batteries installed and camera keeps shutting down,thanks for any help michelle the bomb webster

A common problem i've found with many digital cameras is that the battery contacts can become dirty. Use a rubber eraser on the end of a pencil to rub the gold plated battery contacts. This should clean them very well and may very well resolve the is ...

Sony Cybershot camera will no longer take pictures. When turned on the lens keeps opening and closing and the screen says ACCESS. Then it says shut off camera. The battery is fully charged, not sure what the problem is? The camera is 2 1/2 years old, is that the life span of a digital camera?

Whenever I've seen that before it's caused by the camera being dropped on its lens while the lens was out. It can be repaired though it's fairly expensive too, in my honest opinion you'd be better off getting a new camera. ...

Olympus FE-140 I keep having to install new batteries. The batteries die after a short usage time and I always shut my camera off when not in use. The batteries are not 'dead' because I test them but a lot of their juice is used up (about 1/2). Is this normal for this type of camera. They also die if the camera is not used for lets say a couple of weeks. Thanks!

My opinion, it is not because of your battery. But it is happen because of some of your camera component is damage. I think it is 'Power IC'. I've got this experienced through repairing my customer digital camera. The posible cause of this damage is ...

The camera will do this when you have vary low battery power, I would suggest leaving your camera on and letting the batteries run down on their own, if they already are than see if you can refresh your battery( some chargers have a refresh button) t ...

Powers off my canon powershot sd600 digital camera keeps powering off after about 30 seconds. I have gotten a new battery and that didn't help. On the left hand side before it shuts down it has the letter and numbers E18 on the bottom. The zoom lens is also sticking out and will not retract. There are no error messages on the camera at all. If anyone has a solution please let me know.
Thanks!

E18 is a lens error message, the lens is stuck or bent, and wouldn't come out, that's why camera shuts off after it tries to do so at the start, not much you can do, but replace the whole lens assembly ...
